[#2046830]

Following on from my first puzzled quesion a while back I have moved on with the Garmin and finding it now does what it should, But I have another head scratcher.

As suggested I now follow my routes using tcx format under courses, All working wonders until the other weekend when we visted Quantocks and had a route to follow not having been there before it consisted of lots of loops within the ride.

Without actual visual/audio guiding (turn left etc) the tcx just shows the line on map to follow, When approaching loops how do you know which way round to follow the loop?

Any ideas?

Cheers

Can't you add some Waypoints in the correct order to assist you?

Convert them to a track, and set it to navigate the track.
